SkyBlew – “SkyBlew Meets Bigfoot” (Prod. By Engelwood) [Video]
March 6, 2017
Such dopeness dropped off by the homie SkyBlew last week. I caught up with dude on Facebook and learned of it. Seriously silly, love that guy! This Englewood-produced “SkyBlew Meets Bigfoot” is off his LP “SkyBlew The Cowardly Boy” (which we posted a while ago on here). Fair warning: The beginning and ending shoot straight past Blew’s normal mellow melodius mode to straight hilarity; especially the end.
“GET OUTTA HEY’R FUUT!!”
Bwaaaahahaaa! A must watch. This will make your day!

Kool Keith – “Tired” feat. Edo. G (Prod. By Ol Man 80zz x Futurewave) [Video]
March 3, 2017
Kool Keith is “Tired”… of all the laziness… fugaziness… and all the sh!t that is wrong with Hip-Hop. Stuff that rappers could change if they got moving and kept it moving for real. Edo G is on the track (produced by Ol Man 80zz & Futurewave), and on the video, cosigning all of this. Funny thing is that on this track, we could call Edo old school; but Kool Keith is the OG (e.g. the older G) of the two. That old school – true school, Golden Era cool combo is the mode of the “Feature Magnetic” LP (out now). Many of the features are from rappers of the Golden Era who were preceded by Dr. Octagon by a bit.

Raekwon – “Purple Brick Road” feat. G-Eazy (Video)

Big Sean Breaks Down “No Favors” (Video)
February 23, 2017
Big Sean sits down to break down a track off his latest album (“I Decided”). Talking through “No Favors†(produced by FrancisGotHeat and WondaGurl) lyrics, discussing Eminem and making it, speaking on repping Detroit, the Flint Water Crisis and more… all jammed into the short clip above.
Oddisee – “NNGE” feat. Toine
February 23, 2017
Never Not Getting Enough is right! It is also the expanded title of “NNGE” from “The Iceberg” album being dropped by Oddisee… like TOMORROW! Certified banger with feature work from Toine on this jawn. Check out the liner notes, links (including a FREE single download and album pre-order), and an embedded stream below.
The prolific MC, producer and musician Oddisee’s new album ‘The Iceberg’ is a plea for humanity to dig deeper in search of understanding and common ground. His third release in just 12 months, ‘The Iceberg’ is a distillation of stereotypical tropes in Hip-Hop and beyond, 12 tracks about money, sex, politics, race and religion that appear superficial until his multi-dimensional lyrics unfurl to expose the complexities of individuality and identity: how we see ourselves and how others see us. Deeply soulful, and shot through with jazz, Go-go, gospel, thick r&b and hard beats, the album is a timely, poetic statement. ‘The Iceberg’ is out February 24 on Mello Music Group.

O.C. – “Serious” (Prod. Gwop Sullivan)
February 13, 2017
Viacom got your brain on mute…
Damn right. O.C. came “Serious” with the rhyme demonstration this go ’round, because sh!t’s way beyond serious out here. Commenting on the state of the nation, politicians not doing a damned thing and the dumbed down music industry happily keeping us not giving a damn that they don’t. You can grab the whole “Same Moon Same Sun” project off the D.I.T.C. website.
Dope spit. And Gwop Sullivan must’ve taken a sh!t on it producing this banging azz track (’cause it is FUNKY)!
